Article 3 of the 14th Amendment has been invoked at least 8 times in the past few centuries. Please review them and explain to me you think how Trump deserves better treatment than the previous 8 people.
Trump doesn’t believe in due process. He’s literally said as much.
His people don’t believe in due process.
If he is allowed to get back into the white house, he will absolutely ignore every single thing preventing him from going full dictator. Due process won’t matter to him, the rule of law won’t matter to him, the goddamn constitution won’t matter to him.
But at least you’ll be able to feel smug knowing that you almost got “bluemaga” to be a thing.
The latter half may be hyperbolic … but the former, about article 3 is fact. Cry about it all you want, it’s express purpose is to stop assholes like Trump.
Section one is the preamble to all other sections of the amendment. It gives the baseline that all other sections must follow.
Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment gives Congress the power to disqualify someone who has already held a public office from holding “any office” if they participate in an “insurrection or rebellion” against the United States.

It has been a thing, you not being aware of it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
Your entire comment is meaningless hyperbole.
